Bysen:Infobox Ice Hockey Player

You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages.

Remember that you can conduct experiments, and should test all improvements, in either the general Template sandbox or your user space before changing anything here.

Failure to fill in data for any of the following fields WILL delete that field from the infobox

shoots or catches

(choose one based on if player is a skater or a goalie. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that one of these two field choices is used in the template. The only reason that this field has been made optional is because there is discretion involved in choosing which of the two to use in the infobox, based on whether the player is a skater or a goalie)
